"Anyone who likes a good spy story but has doubts about the value of historians rummaging around in archives should look at the magisterial five-volume official history 'British Intelligence in the Second World War' produced by a team of scholars under the distinguished historian Harry Hinsley. Of particular interest is Michael Howard's slim but brilliant final volume, dealing with strategic deception." New York Times Book Review

(Subject: Intelligence, Espionage, Reconnaissance & Electronic Warfare) The fifth and final volume of the Official History. This volume covers the remarkable achievement in WWII of British Intelligence's deception activities. Covers Operation Mincemeat; the double agent GARBO; the non-existent US Army Group. These deception plans were co-ordinated by the W committee which was brought into being by the three directors of naval, military and air intelligence without any authorisation, and accountable to no one. Deception was a major factor in the Normandy invasion's successes.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked condition bound in green cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to a black panel on the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper has a small closed tear to the head of the spine but still in near fine condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. This volume and its companions cannot fail to be of exceptional interest in their contribution to the definitive history of the Second World War. All the volumes are bound to stimulate controversy. Doubtless other judgements will be proposed in the independent histories which will follow when most of the archives on which they are based are transferred to the Public Record Office, as they eventually will be. Meanwhile this Official history will be the standard authority on this fascinating subject for many years to come. I am selling all five volumes in this series on this site. Ref ZZ 3.
